Have re installed the command center from the dell website, also had to do this because my active vents don't work..
Any help would be appreciated

I would have suggested you do a system restore prior to reinstalling the CC. So I'm not sure a system restore would work now but that is what I would try.

I am getting the same (almost identical) error pop up, I tried everything from this forum to fix this CC issue but I think my MIO board is dead.
Tried to reset the MIO using this forum as a guide, with no success.
THERMAL CONTROLLER:

AlienwareAlienFXTester.exe is showing no board detected.
I am running an non-ALX area 51.
Bios version A10
Tried every version of command center with the steps for clean install followed
OS: Windows7
All lights are inop, vents only move full open and close on cold boot then stick in 50%, and fans run but with no way of controlling them
Am I correct in assuming I will be needing a new MIO?
Thanks.

I guess this is a mute topic these days. Oh well I guess I will just have to continue to try and unlock the MIO over and over until I replace this computer.
If anyone does care, could some one give me a 100% physical indication that the board is dead, I ask because I have a blue and a orange light illuminated on the board.
Thanks?

If you search the forum for my responses to "MIO Board" or "Command Center" you will find what you are looking for. There is also Forum "Sticky" about it. If you have specific questions, I'll try to help.
Sounds like it's getting power. It's likely just locked-up or in-a-loop.
